say i'm fat? I only weigh 120 and I'm 5'4. Just because I have a booty doesn;t mean I'm fat. They told me I need to weigh 110. Why do they think having a big booty is FAT even when I'm 120?

Sorry you feel that way, but I think most of America has an incorrect view of what is fat and what isn't. However, medically it is also surprising to me what is considered fat or obese. I'm 5'9" and medically I am only suppose to weigh like 168 pounds. That seems grossly small. I weigh about 190 and I feel and think I look fine. Nonetheless, I'm sure if I did weigh what I should medically I would probably feel better and live longer. So, I wouldn't worry at all about what others may say, but I may consider what a doctor would say. If you are in line with what is healthy, and you are comfortable in your own skin, then who cares who looks and talks. As to the race thing, I don't think it is actually much of an issue. Different races are built differently, and from someone outside of a race it may be interesting or something to look at, but that shouldn't be bothersome. Many white women are cursed with the flat a sses, white only looks sadder and sadder as they get older, and I'm sure black women at some point have said something about this, if nothing else but for the curiosity factor.
Wow, I rambled a little. Just find peace within yourself.

I'm sure not all white people are like that. I'm about the same height and weight as you are. It's just genetics...women with a lot of European ancestry tend to have a thinner lower body, while women with African ancestry tend to have more curves. Love yourself for who you are. It doesn't matter what those people told you, they don't know nothing about you, so don't let what they say hurt you. They're probably just jealous anyway, and feel better about themselves if they put someone else down. You definitely aren't fat, having a big booty is just in your genetics, so don't let some idiots ruin how you view your self-image. When did the idea of beauty become an anorexic stick anyway? Blame the stupid media. Real women have curves.

Because white people have been told that having a big butt is not attractive. They associate it with negative body type. During the 40s and 50s a super flat behind was the only look that was acceptable. (look at the movie stars and how flat they were back there) Over the years beauty was defined by the size of butt that is why white people see a big butt as a negative. They were trained that way. It's just like big nose, big lips, big butt. Sense the media has gotten on this big butt hype because of Jennifer Lopez it appears it is more socially acceptable, such as bigger lips. But never the less, alot of whites have not jumped on the big butt band wagon and so therefore you are hearing the residue of a stereotype. No other race has seperated themselves from us by the size of the butt execpt whites so that is why you don't hear much from other races. If asians think it I don't think they are the kind who say it.

Well, it could be because generally speaking, black people and white people, have 2 different standards of beauty.
My sister is your exact size...5'4, 120lbs, and she also has booty. She goes to a primarily white school, and she tells me the girls there think she's on the big side.
On the flip side, I'm 5'5, 138 lbs, and even with the weight being mostly in my butt and hips, my friends still think I'm on the skinny side. So its all a matter of perception, but even then, you are not even close to fat.

Why are you categorizing people into race, I don't think that is a bad weight for your height. But then again I have a booty and keep getting hit on by a lot of black men and not white ones. then again I live in the south and men just like booty, so what does it matter be happy with yourself.

Why are Black people into Big Booties. Hey not saying you are fat. It is a difference of tastes. Most white people, or at least by the ones you meet, aren't into big butts. That seems to be something blacks enjoy though. To each their own, and ignore the comments you are fat. After all if they are only going by the booty then you proably aren't. I haven't seen you though so maybe you carry the weight bad and you are fat. Don't sound like you would be though.

I would hardly call that fat..(and I'm white)..it may be because you are shaped a little differently to most caucasians who tend to have flatter rear-ends. I certainly hope that these people calling you the F word weren't the stick thin type who think a couple of grapes and a bagle is going to make them fat....
If I were you, I wouldn't take it to heart...you know best if you are overweight or not so why let another persons opinion bother you?

If you're okay with your weight and body image, it shouldn't matter to you what other people say. Lots of guys (myself included) like women with booty. We love it when those pants make your butt look big. That number on the scale means absolutely NOTHING!!!
I will be so glad when women start concentrating on something more important than their weight. Get over it...No one cares what you weigh!!!
Why did you have to make this a "white people" issue? It was so not necessary. That's racist in itself. Stop doing that, it's ignorant.

110? Isn't that anorexic? What is there for a man to hold on to!?
Women need curves, not bones that jut out. Yuk!
Don't listen to them! White girls are obessed with looking like malnurished, starving, walking bags of bones. I always feel like I need to get them hooked up with a charity that feeds starving people.
